American investor Joseph DaGrosa said the clock is ticking on his bid to buy Premier League club Southampton, warning the team's current owners that "time kills all deals". DaGrosa, who also praised Newcastle United as a target for investors, heads a bid by the Miami-based private equity firm Kapital Football Group to purchase the Saints from current owner, Chinese businessman Gao Jisheng. The former owner of French club Girondins de Bordeaux has been in talks with Southampton from before September and praised the club's set-up, but says a deal has to be at a fair price.
